Weed may help your confidence but can't improve your voice; 'Train' – 2Lock (Nana Fynn)
2Lock, formerly called Nana Fynn, has argued the human voice, "unlike the human skin", gets better with age.
He was speaking to Nana Romeo, host of Accra 100.5 FM’s midmorning programme, Ayekoo Ayekoo.
“I’ll say the voice gets even better with age,” 2Lock said. “Unless you stop using the vocal chords or you stop singing.”
He posited “there’s a connection between your ear and your throat,” and this must be further connected to one’s brain, “else your singing will be messy because you cannot accurately express what you have in your mind”.
The beloved vocalist challenged the notion some drugs can improve one’s voice.
“If you don’t train your voice, you can consume a sack of weed everyday but still fail at singing,” he said.
Anyone who says differently, he added, is speaking “utter foolishness”.
That notwithstanding, the Santrofie hitmaker said, “perhaps, someone people use hard drugs to improve their confidence – and you know you need to be confident to sing. Some people lack that confidence and so, I don’t know, maybe taking in something give them the vim to perform”.
Concerning some notions held about a singer’s diet, the Highlife star said, “bananas help clear one’s throat, especially of phlegms, greatly reducing vocal cracks”. He disputed singers cannot drink chilled water, advising, however, “when you drink cold water, don’t talk or sing for 30 minutes to one hour else you’ll find it hard to project vocally while staying smooth”.
